Yes, it should be negative since we want to use this as the y origin of the rectangle
relative to the baseline. I am using it correctly in the height calculation.

40 float height = ascent + descent + leading;
541 return new Rectangle2D.Float(0f, ascent, width, height);

Hi, Phil.
The new code will calculate the logical bounds this way:
    541 new Rectangle2D.Float(0f, ascent, width, height);
But previously it was:
    2613 new Rectangle2D.Float(0, -tl.getAscent(), tl.getAdvance(),
    2614                       tl.getAscent() + tl.getDescent() +
    2615                       tl.getLeading());

Note that the second parameter is negative, is it intentionally changed?

This partially addresses a slow-down in Swing.

Swing now usually calls Font.getStringBounds() instead of FontMetrics().stringWidth for text measurement.

The latter has a fast-path for latin-only simple text.

The former does not .. and at a minimum uses GlyphVector.

This fix provides a similar fast path and for direct calls to these methods (micro benchmarks) that is latin text they are now very similar .. at least for typical strings.

In this fix as well as making this change in the font code, I updated Swing to more
be a little more efficient.

Before this fix I always saw Swing coming in with a char[] .. then constructing a String from it. Then it passes it to the font measurement code, which then decomposes the string back into a char[] If Swing directly uses the API that takes a char[] then we save some overhead.


It does not get back all of the loss by Swing since

1) Swing has other overhead elsewhere - it seems

2) Swing is making 90% of these calls for a single char.
This could be from where Swing naively tries to add up char advances itself to
get a string advance.

We may have to come back to that later. Perhaps with new public API.
